Appendix ATTACIMENT 1 SCOPE OF WORK CITY OF SANTA ANA REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR CITYWIDE PARKING STUDY - CONSULTING SERVICES RFP NO.: 22-074 INTRODUCTION The City of Santa Ana's residential permit parking program was established to limit intrusion of nonresidential and commuter parking into residential neighborhoods citywide, by creating permit parking districts via resolution. Since then, streets with permit parking restrictions has grown rapidly near and around high parking generators, such as, large multifamily and/or clusters of multifamily complexes, mixed used districts, new developments, etc. The City has experienced significant challenges related to limited parking on public streets. There are roughly 9,000 permits issued citywide within 27 permit parking districts. Currently residents are eligible for parking permits if they live on a qualifying block within the established permit parking district and live in either of the following: 1. Single-family homes: Up to U3 parking permits. 75 guest permits per year, per home. 2. Multi -family family homes with two (2) to four (4) units per parcel: Ul parking permit maximum per dwelling unit and no guest permits. hnproving public parking supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #5 Community Health, Livability, Engagement & Sustainability and objective #4 (support neighborhood vitality and livability). Achieving these goals and objectives will require addressing, not just residential neighborhood parking, also the parking needs for commercial and parking impacted multifamily due to the contributions of the following factors; growing number of vehicles per household, older neighborhoods originally designed for a lower parking demand, limited parking within multi -family communities, the number of people living in a residential unit, the use of garages for storage and unpermitted living quarters, and new housing developments that provide minimal parking (such as accessory dwelling units, large multi -family, etc.,). Also, continuous addition of new residential permit parking streets, vehicles utilizing these streets for parking are displaced and move to nearby streets, causing a "domino" effect impacting the surrounding streets and causing for more permit parking requests. The study will consist of the following (but not limited to) tasks and objectives to develop a citywide permit parking program to provide balanced parking to support resident quality of life, visitors, businesses, and commuters: • Analysis of the current residential parking streets, regulations, enforcement, and trends; • Review of residential parking practices in comparable cities, use as case studies; City of Santa Ana RFP 22-074 Page Al-1
